Denver Nuggets head coach Michael Malone praised Jamal Murray for scoring a buzzer-beater in Game 2 against the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday at Ball Arena to secure a 2-0 lead heading into Game 3 of the first-round series.
Malone recalled a moment from a few years back when "people" begged him to bench Murray at halftime of a playoff game because of his horrible first-half performance. Malone kept him on the floor and Murray went on to win them the game.
